Custom Carbon Fiber Tubes
Custom engineered composite tubular structures ... for all demanding applications.
Nim-Cor custom engineers, designs and manufactures composite tubular structures for all types of applications, from air shafts on converting lines to drive shafts in formula racing cars. Specializing in thermoset filament winding, we have the capability to produce composite tubes up to 18 ft. long and 21 in. in diameter. Our engineers are experienced with various fibers and resin systems allowing us to design products to meet the most demanding tolerances or performance specifications. We maintain over 70 different tooling sizes and stock various types of fibers and resins to achieve record turnaround times.

Wide Variety of Composite Applications
Nim-Cor composites are made with fiber-reinforced resin systems. Their properties can be varied in different directions, based on the fiber orientation. Therefore, parts can be custom-designed for the exact strength and stiffness required for any application. This design freedom can mean considerable weight and energy savings, better functional performance and higher equipment efficiencies.
